Great scores Wayne!

Agree with Andy re the artwork too. I grew up with Hasegawa kits with S.Koike's paintings. Those above seem to be done by two new artists, but looks like S.Koike was their teacher!
 
It's the art work which goes a long way to selling the product, so they should pay him, or her, well. Mind you, at the prices they charge, they can afford too !
 
Awesome Cory.....would love one myself!!

Zuikaku was the last of the 6 Pearl Harbour Carriers to be sunk on 25th October 1944 at the Battle of Cape Engano off the Phillipines.

The decals for my other '771' Starfighter, in Royal Danish Air Force service, arrived today from Holland.
Quite a comprehensive set, in a 'no frills' package, but little in the way of instructions apart from the rather small colour drawings, and no unit badges. But that's not a problem, I can probably make decals for the latter, and the locations of most I can easily work out.

Thanks Jim, and funny you should mention that Karl!
I was just thinking along similar lines .... and I wonder what they'd open-up for us this time around?!
Fancy a trip there in the not too distant future then ?
